Shiv Sena Reacts To Disha Salian Father's Charge Against Aaditya Thackeray

Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut has raised questions about the timing of the petition filed against Aaditya Thackeray in connection with the death of celebrity manager Disha Salian. On Wednesday, Disha Salian's father, Satish Salian, submitted a petition requesting a CBI investigation and an FIR against Aaditya Thackeray in relation to his daughter's death. Disha Salian, the former manager of late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput, allegedly died by suicide on June 8, 2020, after jumping from a high-rise in the northern suburb of Malad.

Nearly five years after the incident, Satish Salian has approached the Bombay High Court, seeking a fresh investigation into the case, HT reported. He has requested that the investigation be handed over to the CBI and called for an FIR against Aaditya Thackeray.

Thackeray has reportedly been accused of rape and murder. Advocate Nilesh C. Ojha, the lawyer representing Satish Salian, told the news agency ANI that the complaint was filed over a year ago, but no case has been registered so far.

"On 12th January 2024, a written complaint was filed accusing Aaditya Thackeray, Suraj Pancholi and others of gang rape. FIR was not registered for more than one year. The affidavit filed by Aaditya Thackeray stated lies that he was given a clean chit by the CBI in the case," he said.

Raut added: "I don't know what is in the petition. But the time chosen for the petition is when the atmosphere in Maharashtra is heated over Aurangzeb. Some power is working behind the petitioner. All powers are behind them. Discussion is being created around that petition, leaving aside the Aurangzeb issue. There is no need to name the people who are behind this.바카라�

"It is not the culture of Maharashtra to throw mud on the future and career of a young leader in this way. These experiments were done on many leaders like us. Nothing came out of it," he said to ANI.

Raut warned of politics around the issue. He further added that many such cases happen in Maharashtra and families seek justice but five years later, they come out and say, they were pressurised.

On the side, late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput's father, KK Singh, has come out in support of the Salian family, seeking a probe into their daughter's death. He believes this might help find answers to both Disha and Sushant's death.

"I don't know his reasons and motivation for moving the court, but what he has done is right, and through this, we can get a conclusion on whether it was a suicide or murder. This will also shed light on Sushant's case," KK Singh told news agency ANI.

Who Was Disha Salian?

Disha Salian resided in a flat in Dadar with her parents, Satish and Vasanti Salian. At 28 years old, Disha worked as a celebrity manager, gaining recognition for her work with the late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Tragically, Sushant is said to have taken his own life in his Bandra apartment just six days after Disha's death.

Prior to her work with Sushant, Disha had also collaborated with actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on the film Jazba and actor Varun Sharma, as reported by India Today.
